4.9/5 (28151 ratings)
Description:Nutraceuticals and functional foods, known for their ability to provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition, are gaining recognition for their potential in preventing and treating chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. These foods and supplements have a significant amount of bioactive chemicals, which offer medical advantages that enhance conventional pharmacological therapies. Drug delivery technologies, such as nanotechnology and encapsulation, improve the stability, bioavailability, and effectiveness of drugs, enhancing their potential for treatment. Scientific evidence suggests that they play a crucial function in regulating biological pathways that are associated with preventing diseases and promoting good health. Nevertheless, there are still obstacles to overcome in the field, including the inconsistency in the composition of bioactive compounds, regulatory concerns, and the necessity for rigorous clinical trials. This Research Topic seeks to explore innovative drug delivery systems, mechanisms of action, and clinical outcomes to develop effective, evidence-based nutritional interventions for improving health and combating chronic diseases. Nutraceuticals and functional foods hold significant promise for disease prevention and treatment, yet their integration into healthcare faces substantial hurdles. Key issues include inconsistent composition and potency of bioactive compounds, low bioavailability, lack of robust clinical evidence, and complex regulatory frameworks. Additionally, the specific mechanisms through which these compounds confer health benefits are not fully understood, impeding their effective use in personalized nutrition and targeted therapies. The Research Topics is seeking articles that fit in the general themes of: • Innovative drug delivery systems for nutraceuticals and functional foods. • Mechanisms of action of bioactive compounds. • Clinical trials and evidence-based research. • Regulatory and quality control issues. • Nutraceuticals and functional foods in personalized nutrition. • Synergistic effects of nutraceuticals and conventional therapies. • Probiotics and prebiotics. • Nutritional strategies for enhancing drug efficacy. • Phytochemicals and their therapeutic potential. • Interdisciplinary approaches to nutraceutical research. The Research Topic welcomes Original Research Articles, Clinical Trial Reports, Methods Articles, Case Studies, Perspective and Opinion Pieces, and Short Communications.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
